On Commentator’s “Someone’s Trash” Remark For RCB Pacer, Franchise’s Reply | Cricket News

Former Indian cricket team spinner Murali Kartik was widely criticized on social media for his on-air commentary on Royal Challengers Bengaluru pacer Yash Dayal during the IPL 2024 match against Punjab Kings on Monday. Dayal ended up conceding five sixes in five balls against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL – an unwanted performance that had a huge impact on the young cricketer. However, he was picked by RCB for Rs 5 crore in the IPL 2024 auction and while talking about the move, Kartik said, “One’s trash is one’s treasure”. The comment was not received positively by many social media users.

“How do you say someone’s trash is someone’s treasure? You just called Yash Dayal Trash! Like what even?”, comedian and television host Danish Sait posted on X (formerly Twitter).
